Curcumin - Life Extension Videos

like i said to another lady. i would recommend for health reasons to try to find the most organic freshest turmeric you can. im thinking powder because i dont know what you do with the root itself. avoid capsules. also i drank some powder today and use hot water but beware that turmeric doesnt really dissolve in water so you will need to stir and drink quick after stirring. if you look online you can find correct dosage. with any herb it is good to take a break for awhile.

hi I have cystic fibrosis,

do you know if abrotose or serrapeptase would significantly help my lung condition?

any info would help

I'm thinking about buying some curcumin powder, do you think it is important for me to get the b3 complex curcumin
or do you think the regular curcumin is good enough, thanks

Systemic enzymes like serrapeptase may help to breakdown mucus build-up in the airway spaces. However, I would also suggestion trying N-acetyl-cysteine. This potent antioxidant amino acid is great at supporting healthy airway spaces.

Life Extension suggests for your condition a regular curcumin-only extract.

Ok, thanks

But why a regular curcumin-only extract, what about the more bio-available curcumax or the
tri-force turmeric?

LE would suggest that you supplement with a highly bio-available form of curcumin, like Curcumin BCM-95. This particular form of curcumin has remarkable absorption. Some studies reveal that just one dose of 400 mg per day of this special turmeric compound provides curcumin blood levels equivalent to ingesting 2,500-2,800 mg of commercial curcumin supplements.

ok well, how would you compare Curcumin BCM-95 to what i have been taking Turmeric Tri-Force - 95

Which one is more bio-available?

Turmeric Tri-Force is a marketed product that uses BCM-95 (Organic Bio-enhanced Curcuminoids - Standardized to 95% 300 mg) mixed with two other extracts: Organic Turmeric Rhizome CO2 Extract (Min 55% Turmerones) and organic whole herb turmeric. For a full explanation of the products label, I would contact the company directly.

Hello, I was reading about curcumin on your website. I did not full understand the inhibition of arachidonic acid. what is the purpose of arachidonic acid. And why is it benefical that the curcumin inhibits this acid?

Thank you

The arachidonic acid pathway is the primary pathway for inflammation. In a sense, its the bodys main pro-inflammation pathway. Arachidonic acid is the precursor to most other inflammatory proteins. By inhibiting this pathway, you can reduce inflammation in the body. It is important to reduce inflammation because it is the common denominator for all age-related diseases.

thank you so much for info. Is it best method for Boil prevention?
